Instructions

  • Prep
  • Prior to using this top coat, we recommend using CrystaLac Amber Toned Sanding Sealer to enrich the warm natural colors in the wood and minimize grain raising. 
  • If applying over anything else, make sure it is applied over thoroughly dried oil or water-based stains, shellac, lacquer, polyurethane or acrylic. 
  • If recoating over an old finish, scuff sand first and remove any surface contaminants such as dirt, waxes or polishes.
  • Application: Apply 3-5 coats for a beautiful, protective finish. More coats may be added based on preference.
  • Dry Time: Extreme Protection Polyurethane will be dry to the touch in 30 minutes to an hour. 
  • Recoat Time: Allow 2 to 4 hours before recoating.

Super high-quality, results are simply amazing.

Been looking for a high-end top-quality water-borne clear as a topcoat for my restored vintage pinball machine cabinets. Well I found your poly and I am ecstatic with the clarity, hardness, smoothness and evenness of this product. Especially in light of my spray setup - 30$ spray gun, pancake compressor, regulator and filter. I followed the suggestion for mixing with 5% retarder, allowing the product to even out perfectly prior to drying. Professional results, simply amazing, I'm one happy camper.
